awaiting scramble orders from the RAF.

……and on how to fire my weapons :oops:

[anchovy]

Scramble 2 UK ftr, 1 French ftr from eng into z109.

Need help firing weapons?  Sure, just point the long hollow end towards you, and…  :wink:

Seriously, here’s how:

For example, Normandy
Attacker: 2 inf, 3 mec, 1 arm, 1 tac, 1 bmr - you have 5 rolls@1, 2@3 and 1@4.
Type:  :bbb 5@1 2@3 1@4:

But, instead of “bbb” you’re actually typing in “aaa”.  I used "b"s so the dice won’t actually roll.

Defender: 2 inf, 1 arm, 1 ftr
Type:  :bbb 2@2 1@3 1@4:

Again, make sure to use “aaa”.

After round 1, account for casualties, then repeat for round2.  You may need to ask for casualties before rolling if the order of loss is not standard.

[anchovy]

BTW, the Scotland ftr does not scramble.

[M7574]

ok, got it i think.  will roll it up later tonight.  still at work.

oops.  forgot the air can scramble in sz109.  destroyer. argh.  Doenitz hoping not to pay for the blunder.

so much for the z-plan.  I knew there was a good reason the subs usually go to sz91.

[M7574]

I think i made a declaration error on where the subs come from.  one needs to be listed at sz107 not sz117.  but the destinations are correct.

anyways. Test-

aaa: 4@1 3@3:

retreat!

sub withdraws.

geez, that turn was a mess.  I need a mouse.  This laptop pad sucks.  This dicey is a lot of work too.  Glad the first turn is out of the way.  That as a fat lip in Paris.  What the hell, Guderian?  Guess the Maginot was extended.  sheesh.

see map for NCM’s.  hope that is ok.
